The channeld bed, I myself would of done it from the bottom, which would of raised the fender wells, but you're way look's like It was a lot easy'r to do, and alot quicker, my way you would of had to cut out the fender well's channeld the bed an reset the fender wells, You thinking of going two tone? like the graphic Idea, what kolor Idea's you got? and It's SLAM'D

Awesome job so far, love the stance. What color are you planning?

However, it might deter some of the members to look at this with it being an attachment. Check out my topic on posting pictures in the Tips, Tricks, and Ideas section.

I have gone to tamiya spray can cause it lays out so nice and the color choice is lime green on the bottom and gun metal on top. the split may not be exact to the pencil marks but probably close, sprayed the green tonight.

I will go check your tips on pics, but it took me two days to get these on from my pics on the computer,

me not so bright on them there computer boxes. hahahahahaha.....

I havent used the Tamyia Sprays yet, but i have used the Model Master Laquer and it works GREAT

Dont worry about not being good with computers, the one I made that for is not good very good with computers either. So give it a try and hopefully it wont take longer than a day.

I replied in the other topic. Lets keep it there, so we dont take over this topic with other things other than your build.

[plumnuts]

[GOTH KUSTOMS]

had to movr vac boost over on fire wall to have it clear front wheel. and just kick up the rear of tunnel for the driveline. . so what do you think?

[Guest JamesDE]

That is looking awesome. Great interior work BTW.

Cool paint job! I'm thinking of something along those lines for my 454SS "El Camino" - bed molded to the cab.

you caught me on that one. chayy manifold was to tall (and ugly) and my parts bin is not so hot, so after trimming and fitting to get the hood closed thats what i had and what fit, I did just pick up the 40 ford kit that has a LS1 that might go in if it dosen't go in the ford.

[plumnuts]

I'v been staring at this think so long I can't figure out if I like this paint or I need to go back to plastic and start again can you guys help me out with this.(do I need to just walk away from it?).

would really like input. good bad or ugly?

[Clay]

I like it.

[miatamadman]

Those graphics look awesome! I would'nt change a thing.

[george 53]

I'm kinda confused(naturaly)What is it that you don't like? The color? It 's smooth, clean, gots a nice shine to it. The stance is PERFECT! Wheel choice is right on too! I like it! DON'T stick a fork in it, BUT you COULD call this one done! And very WELL done at that!!!

[plumnuts]

thanks alot guys, that help more than you know. just a little burnout, but I'm back on track and should finish up in a few days.
